New House

The next day, Zhou Jia returned with the farming tools he had made and the cattle he had bought for Li Mei's family. He even hired more than ten laborers to help with the clearing of the wasteland.

After the workers plowed the ground, they picked up the stones and dead trees in the wasteland. Then they used the plow to rake the ground open. They picked up the small stones hidden in the ground and plowed deeper.

Li Yu and Zhou Jia brought Li Qing, Ji Xiang, and Ruyi to find a patch of bushes to dig up the withered grass on the ground. They dug up the rotten soil under the withered grass and scattered it in the grooves made by the plows. When the ground was about to be ready, Li Yu brought people to filter out the wheat, leaving behind grainy wheat seeds that were exposed to the sun a few times to prepare them for planting.
